A Mazda Protege driven by Cassandra Machicek, 32, of Victoria was eastbound on Houston Highway when it struck a dump truck driven by Jose Casas, 58, of Victoria, said Victoria Police Officer Shane Wallace.

Machicek said the dump truck, owned by J&R Backhoe Service, switched into her lane, dragging her vehicle along before it crashed onto the curb. Casas denied switching lanes, Wallace said.

The collision caused diesel fuel to leak from a tank underneath the passenger's side of the dump truck.

No one was injured in the crash.

Wallace said diesel fuel was spread along the stretch of highway, requiring cleanup from city crews.

Given the conflicting accounts of the wreck, the case is under investigation.
